Action Sports Toys, a new company unlike any seen before, will be releasing a line of Shralpers (shredders + rippers = sharlpers) action figures latter this year.

The line will include an action figure as well as a small vehicle - such as a skateboard, snowboard, surfboard, or BMX bike - and a gear-driven pole which allows the figure and board to move independently as well as in-sync with one another.

Prototypes of the Male Skateboarder (above) and Male Surfer were on display at this year's New York Toy Fair. Those interested in the line will be excited to know a Female version of each figure will also be created as will a wave diorama and a skate park diorama which will allow fans to skate and surf their figures and "visualize" the moves they themselves will want to replicate when rippin' and shreddin' the asphalt and waves...
